Convert Percent per kelvin to Per microkelvin
Convert Percent per kelvin (%/K) to Per microkelvin (1/μK) instantly and accurately.
Conversion Formula
1/μK = %/K × 1.000000000e-8
About Percent per kelvin
The %/K equals exactly 10⁻² /K = 10 000 ppm/K and is used for high-CTE materials such as polymers, foams, and rubber. PTFE: ≈0.0135 %/K; HDPE: ≈0.015 %/K; natural rubber: ≈0.06 %/K; silicone rubber: ≈0.10 %/K. 1 %/K = 10⁻² /K = 10 mm/(m·K) = 10 000 ppm/K.
About Per microkelvin
The per microkelvin (1/μK) equals exactly 10⁶ /K. It is used in ultra-precision experiments probing anomalous thermal expansion extremely close to second-order phase transitions, such as the superfluid He-4 lambda point (2.1768 K) and magnetic phase boundaries in rare-earth compounds. 1 /μK = 10⁶ /K = 10¹² ppm/K.
